REPORT OF AN AUDIT OF THE TOWN ACCOUNTS IN 1941


Report of an audit of the accounts of the Town of Lynnfield, for the period from March 17, 1938 to June 18, 1941, also from March 14, 1937 to June 18, 1941, made in accordance with the provisions of Chapter 44, of the General Laws, has been received. This audit is in the form of a report, made by Mr. Herman B. Dine, Assistant Director of Accounts, and is on file in the Town Hall, and is published in the Town Report for the year 1941.


HARRY W. HIGGINS,


Town Clerk.

REPORT OF TOWN CLERK


Mr. Theodore N. Waddell


Director of Accounts Department of Corporations and Taxation State House, Boston Sir:


In accordance with your instructions, I have made an audit of the books and accounts of the tax collector of the town of Lynnfield for the period from March 17, 1938, the date of the previous audit, to June 18, 1941, and of the accounts of all other departments of the town for the period from March 14, 1937, to June 18, 1941, the following report being submitted thereon:


The financial transactions of the town, as recorded on the books of the several departments collecting money for the town or com- mitting bills for collection, were examined and checked in detail.


The books and accounts of the town accountant were examined and checked with the treasurer's books and with the records in the several departments. The receipts, as recorded, were checked with the treasurer's cash book and the payments were compared with the warrants authorizing the disbursement of town funds.


The ledger was analyzed, the appropriations were compared with the town clerk's record of appropriations voted, and the recorded transfers were checked with those authorized by the town and the finance committee.


It was again noted that it has been the practice for the town to vote one appropriation under the heading of "General Government" which is intended to provide for the salaries and expenses of the fol- lowing departments: Selectmen, town accountant, treasurer, collector, assessors, town clerk, election and registration, etc. In this connection it is again recommended that separate appropriations be voted for the salaries and expenses of the departments which have hitherto been charged to the "General Government" appropriation.


A balance sheet, which is appended to this report, was prepared showing the financial condition of the town on June 18, 1941.


The books and accounts of the town treasurer were examined and checked in detail. The recorded receipts were analyzed and compared with the collector's records of payments to the treasurer, with the records in the several departments collecting money for the town, and with other sources from which money was paid into the town treasury, while the payments were checked with the selectmen's warrants to the treasurer.


The cash balance on June 28, 1941, was proved by actual count of the cash in the office and by reconciliation of the bank balances with statements furnished by the banks in which town funds are deposited.


30


TOWN OF LYNNFIELD


The payments of debt and interest were checked with the amounts falling due and with the cancelled securities on file.


The securities and savings bank books representing the invest- ments of the trust funds in the custody of the town treasurer were personally examined and listed. The income was proved and the re- ceipts, disbursements, and transfers were verified.


The books and accounts of the tax collector were examined and checked. The poll, property, and motor vehicle excise taxes, special assessments, and water district taxes recommitted on March 17, 1938, were audited, and all subsequent commitments were checked to the warrants for their collection. The payments to the town and the water district treasurers were checked with their respective cash books, the recorded abatements were compared with the assessors' records of abatements granted, and the outstanding accounts were listed and - reconciled with the respective ledger accounts.


Considerable detailed checking was necessary in order to prove the tax collector's accounts, numerous errors in the clerical work being found.


The final reconciliation of the collector's cash showed a net over- payment to the town treasurer of $371.97 and a net underpayment of $122.25 to the water district treasurers. It is recommended that all entries in the cash books be made from the stubs of receipted tax bills, that the postings to the commitment books be made from the cash book entries, and that the payments to the treasurer correspond in total with the amounts entered in the cash books during the period for which an accounting to the treasurer is being made.


The additional time consumed in proving the tax collector's accounts added materially to the cost of the audit.


Attention is called to the taxes and assessments of prior years re- maining outstanding as shown on the balance sheet mentioned above, and it is recommended that prompt settlement of all prior years' taxes and assessments be secured.


Verification of the outstanding tax, assessment, and water district taxes was made by mailing notices to many persons whose names appeared on the books as owing money to the town and the water districts, the replies received thereto indicating that the accounts, as listed, are correct.


The records of tax titles held by the town were examined and checked. The amounts added to the tax title account were compared with the collector's records, the redemptions were checked with the receipts as recorded on the treasurer's cash book, and the outstanding accounts were compared with the records at the Registry of Deeds.


The records of licenses and permits issued by the selectmen and the town clerk were examined and checked, and the payments to the state and town were verified.


31


REPORT OF TOWN CLERK


The surety bonds of the financial officials bonded for the faithful performance of their duties were examined and found to be in proper form.


The accounts of the sealer of weights and measures and the build- ing inspector, of the public welfare and library departments, as well as of all other departments collecting money for the town, were ex- amined, checked, and reconciled with the treasurer's and the account- ant's books.


In addition to the balance sheet mentioned above, there are appended to this report tables showing a reconciliation of the treasurer's and the collector's cash, summaries of the tax, assessment, tax title, and departmental accounts, as well as tables showing the trust fund transaction.


For the co-operation extended by the various town officials during the progress of the audit, I wish, on behalf of my assistants and for myself, to express appreciation.


Respectfully submitted, HERMAN B. DINE, Assistant Director of Accounts

Your Board of Selectmen submit the following report for the year of 1941:


The new Board of Selectmen consisting of Everett S. Webster, George W. Peavey and Elmer A. Smith, held their first meeting imme- diately after the election returns were officially announced. These men were then duly sworn into office by Mr. Trayers.


As in past years your Board protested the erection and maintenance of billboards in the Town.


The Board vigorously opposed the erection and maintenance of overnight cabins within the limits of the Town.


The Board, in conjunction with the Superintendent of Streets, in- vited sealed bids for a new truck for the Highway Department.

REPORT OF SELECTMEN


The Board, in conjunction with the Police Department, invited sealed bids for a Police Cruiser. Bids were received from thirteen different automobile concerns and it was unanimously voted to award the bid to Classen Bros., Inc., who duly delivered a Plymouth sedan in accordance with specifications.


Petitions were received from citizens of the Town, who purchased houses built in a new development of Strout & Wing, asking that their ways be laid out and accepted as streets. Accordingly Oxbow Road and Homestead Road were laid out as streets.


Some twenty organizations applied for and received one-day licenses to dispense liquor at outings and picnics held at various places in the Town.


Your Board caused bleachers to be built and painted at Suntaug Park.


The Board appointed George Green permanent chairman of the American Red Cross disaster committee.


On November 6, our Chairman, Everett S. Webster, was stricken seriously ill, and Mr. Peavey and Mr. Smith have carried on the duties of the Board, missing very much the valuable services of the Chairman. EVERETT S. WEBSTER, GEORGE W. PEAVEY,

REPORT OF PLANNING BOARD


The Lynnfield Planning Board herewith submits its Annual Report for the year ending December 31, 1941. This completes the twelfth year since our Zoning By-Law was adopted, and the first since the Town adopted Chapter 211.


During the past year the Board has held twenty-five meetings, and three public hearings. Public hearings are held on matters vitally interesting to the Town, for the purpose of giving the citizens an opportunity of expressing their opinions. During the past year these have not been attended by many citizens, and it is hoped future hearings will be attended by a sufficient number of voters to assist the Board in getting the benefit of public opinion on the matter involved.

The latest edition is composed of the original with all the changes that have been adopted.
